I have been using Nite Guard lights for more than a year. I had a raccoon predation problem - nightly attacks on my gold fish, koi, and pond plants - and as soon as I put up three of the lights, it stopped. I have had NO raccoon predation since. I don't care if people say raccoons are color blind, or that Xmas light would do as well, I'm happy with them.

They work! My friend has one. Although, you still need to make sure that the enclosure is dig proof for animals that dig. Also she moves hers about every 3 months. So it looks like there really is a predator and the eyes are not in the same spot.

Yes... yes... yes... I know... I know... I know... I have a hatching addiction! Wait there is another chicken I want !

mmaddie's mom :

Do they drive your chickens crazy?

You put them on the outside of the run.

Now, my chickens range freely, and they don't even notice them where I've placed them near the coops, facing outward. Also, they are just little black boxes during the day; they blink at night when chickens are in the coops asleep.

Might do as well to spend the power on electric fence, nothing fancy, just a couple strand for the creepers and jumpers

The purpose of life is not to arrive at the grave with a well preserved body but rather to skid in sideways, in a cloud of dust, beat up and bloody, grinning ear to ear and yelling "MAN WHAT A HELLUVA RIDE"
